Signature of
Realizing the far-reaching Importanca
of the demurrage question, Its Import
alike to shipper and carrier, and with
the dealre to formulate the soundest,
safest and moat equitable rules possi
ble. Commissioner H. Warner Hill, of
the Oeorgla railroad commission, at
tended the conference of railroad com
missioners from all over the country In
Washington October 8.
Commissioner Hill Went aa the ac
credited representative of the Oeorgla
commission. He Is perfectly familiar
with the rules under which the com'
mission has been working, and more,
over has been and Is a close student
of this question. Commissioner Hill
returned from Washington Monday
prepared to give his fellow-commis
sioners the benefit of facts and Ideas
obtained In that conference, demurrage
being the matter most discussed.
Few recognize how much Is Involved
In this one word, "demurrage.” To the
ordinary person, who does not have to
do with It, the question means noth
ing. But demurrage does concern very
vitally large shippers and the rail'
roads—and. of course. Indirectly thoU'
sands of Individuals.
There are three kinds of demurrage,
each Involving separate and distinct
questions, yet closely Inter-related. So
much Is Involved in these threo propos
sltlons, so delicate are some of the IS'
sues concerned, and eo difficult Is I
to arrive at exact Justice between all
parties concerned, that it Is not a thing
to be set forth and fixed In definite
rules without profound research and
thought.
First, there Is direct demurrage. Un
der existing rules, when a car of gpods
Is placed on a siding or track for a
consignee It must bo unloaded within
forty-eight hours. If this Is not done
the consignee Is penalised 31 per day
for every day over that time.
Aa a general proposition, there _
no objection to this rule, though there
may be Individual Instances of where
It works a hardship. But It la recog
nised that without some kind of fine
or penalty for holding cam longer than
a fixed time It would result In serious
congestion of traffic, and hamper the
carriers In the expeditious handling of
the business of the country.
Second, there Is demurrage In tram
alt, to which the railroads Interpose
most serious obectlnn under existing
rules In Georgia. The Oeorgla rail
road commission requires freight to be
moved at a speed of BO miles per day.
To Illustrate Its effect: An Atlanta
firm ships a car load of goods to a
point within the state two hundred
miles distant from the point of origin.
Under the rules, it must be delivered
to Its destination In four days. For ev.
ery day over that time the railroads
must pay demurrage of 31 per day.
Railroad men are a unit In contend
Ing that the speed per day required In
Oeorgla for moving freight Is unreason
ably high. In support of this conten
tlon they advance the fact that by ac
tual computation the rate at which
freight moves throughout the United
States la 24 1-2 miles per day.
They ask, therefore, that the Oeorgla
commission cut the requirement to not
exceeding 23 miles per day.
The Central has proven by figures
that Its dally average Is only 19 miles
per day, and one or two other Impor
tant lines 21 miles. With the whole
desire of preserving exact Justice be
tween all parties, and at the same time
stimulate the movement of traffic, the
commission Is giving this feature of de
murrage especial thought.
Third, there Is reciprocal demurrage,
a matter In the proper and Just adjust
ment of which experts the country over
have given much study and attention.
The carriers are strongly against this
rule also, and ask for Its complete re
sclndlng.
Reciprocal demurrage operates os
follows: When a shipper applies for a
car or cars to be delivered at a given
point on a given date, the railroads are
allowed four days within which to com
ply. A penalty of |1 per day per car
for every day thereaftsr Is levied upon
the carrier.
One fertiliser factor)' In the elate
now has demurrage claims aggregating
12,100 pending against a railroad under
this rule. This claim represents one
season. -
The railroads say that this rule Is
very unjust and works a grave Injus
tice upon them. It le said to work an
especial hardship on short lines, whose
rolling stock la limited.
The carriers say that It la to their
Interests to furnish cars when demand,
ed, but often It la a physical Imposst
blllty for them to do so as quickly as
desired. To penalise them, they say,
for failure to do something that Is pat
ently their Interest to do, but which
may be an Impossibility, can not be
founded In Justice.
Chairman McLendon Is giving the
closest study to these big problems, ns
are all the commissioners. In speaking
of the question of demurrage Chair
man McLendon said:
"It Is a question upon which the big
gest and best brains of the country aro
engaged. Demurrage and sane and
Just rules for tho same Is not only a
problem with us, but It Is with almost
every other state. There are so many
points Involved, so many delicate ques
tions of right arising, that we can not
afford to promulgate haaty and per
haps Ill-advised rules and regulations.
"Demurrage In Oeorgla, as regulated
under the railroad commission, does
not take away the right for civil action
In the courts for damages arising to
Interested parties. Demurrage Is In
tended In Its basic principles to stlmu-

Maier & Berkele
SomSQhe has given a very clever and illuminating description of the "degrees of the drsss. It
runs something liks this:
“Firstly, the Frock, then, in rising sequence, the Dress, the Gown, and the Creation.
' ‘‘The Frock is made by the home seamstress, or ‘an awfully inexpensive little woman around the cor
ner.’ It is of the simpler materials. It is only for morning wear, and its proper attributes are neatness
and comfort.
“The Dress is a thought more elaborate than the Frock. We wear it when we go to see our less-distin
guished relatives, and when we attend church sewing societies, charity boards and the like. It is invariably
made of serviceable material, and fills a niche of its own in the wardrobe, marking the difference between
Duty and Pleasure. The Dress, while it never offends by its presence, never makes a triumphal entry, or
causes heart-burnings of envy among Its wearer’s friends.
“The Gown—now here is a marked rise in the sartorial scale. The Gown is a blending of the frivolous
and the dignified. It has a box to itself, and we tuck tissue paper into its sleeves when we put it away. It
breathes of bridge whist, of afternoon teas, of luncheons at smart restaurants, and we checked payment
for it out of our own private account lest Mr. Man should call us extravagant. r
“But the Creation! To the most of us it comes but once or twice in a lifetime. Imported—oh, la la, cer-
tainement,—with ruedelapaixian art in every puff and frill. Even the consented wearer of the Frock recog
nizes the Creation afar off, and bows before its majesty of line, its symphony of color. In the Creation we
may see the Sartorial Entity, the Aristocrat, the Exclusive, the Confection, the Grande Toilette. It can only
he evolved by an artist, and that artist must be horn to his art.’’ 1
All of which is vsry charming and suggestive. Read it aloud if ysu wish. Twill plsase th«
hearer, no doubt and you will enjey it the mere. But—
This is the sSasen for msrs concrete and definite considerations of ths clothes proposition. Very
nice to read devsr stuff, but much more impressive and practical te be at ths task ef selecting yeur winter
wardrobe. All the “degrees of ths dress” are t° be found here.
This is ysur invitation to come in and let us assist ysu in that delectable pursuit.
The "Garment Beautiful.” Here it is in all its glory of radiant color, fine "lines,” modish trimming
and correct style. New York and Paris are at your doors, so to speak. Ths "Ruedelapaixian art,” re
ferred to by our clever friend, is here in many a stunning form. You have but ts see to wgnder—and de
homage.

Evening Ceats Drsssy Suits • TailoredGowns Imported Blouses
In all the light colors-
cream, champagne, blue,
pink, and so on—are these
smart coats. Most of them
have the Mandarin sleeve
and that loose Japanese-y
effect at once so graceful and
desirable, since it does not
muss your gown and is de
lightfully easy to slip on.
These are effectively trim
med—some with velvet, oth
ers with lace. Stunning
things.
And at moderate price.
This is a strong point in this
line.
Twenty-Five to
Sixty-Five Dollars
The kind of suit you can
wear to church or to a recep
tion with equally good taste.
Exceedingly smart lines,
whether cut on the short
model dear to so many wom
en, or in the long redingote.
The colors are what you
might class as “light”—Co
penhagen blue, gray, cham
pagne, cream, medium blues,
S reens, russet and plum,
lack, of course.
The material is light
weight broadcloth—always
a dressy stuff.
Twsnty-Five to
Ssventy-Fivs Dollars
“Severe,” you’d probably
call these. The kind of gown
that no tasteful woman of
today is willing to dispense
with. The kind with which
to wear suutrt walking boots,
immaculate blouse, simple
hat, and very good glove3.
Get the idea? Strictly tail
ored. In three lengths—30,
36 and 42-inch coats. Beau
ties. All the desirable colors.
Twenty-Five to
Sixty Ddlars
About twenty-five exclu
sive models compose this
rich line. Cream, white and
ecru nets predominate, en
riched exquisitely with laces
Frenchily applied. Then
there are some of the soft
serviceable Messaline, also
lace-trimmed.
Nothing like these in town
